This request is for a refugee family struggling with fertility for the last year and a half. Mother is taking fertility medication and has been advised by physicians to use ovulation kits to increase the chances of successful pregnancy timing, but the family is unable to afford kits. If possible, having enough kits for multiple cycles would be beneficial.

I am working with a single mother who is facing the threat of eviction for her and her 1 year old baby. She works full-time in addition to caring for her baby. She attempted to reach out to St. Vincent de Paul, but they have not been able to help her with rental assistance. This mother is also actively participating in our parent cafes to expand her knowledge and skills as a mother. From the start of working with this mother, she has been nothing but positive and determined to try any and all resources that could help (all the while working a full-time job and caring for her little one).

This request pertains to a 6-year-old girl and her current placement with her Grandmother. The child is in need of her own bed. For the first few weeks of her being placed with her Grandmother, she was co-sleeping with her in her bed. Not only was this a necessity at the time, but it was also the child's preference. Sleeping with her Grandmother made her feel more comfortable and safe. Now that she is settling in with Grandma, the family is requesting support for acquiring a bed for the child. We are looking to get a twin bed set for her. She needs a frame, mattress, bedding, and a pillow. Having her own bed will help foster her independence and improve her relationship with her Grandmother. Any assistance for this matter would be SO greatly appreciated and it would go a long way for this child and her family.

Mom is a single parent to 5 boys, two of which are high-need special education students. Recently, she had $7,000 dollars stolen from her from someone who she really trusted. Now, she is in a crisis finding a way to keep things together. She was just about to finish school, but now she is struggling to even attend due to all of the stress on her right now.

This Springfield family is currently experiencing a difficult season after recently losing their only vehicle. The mother is struggling to get to work consistently, which has added financial strain to the household. Support in the form of children’s clothing and gift cards for food or utility assistance would make a meaningful difference as they work to regain stability.

Please help us to meet the need for a powered mower. We have an adult son thriving in our recovery community who provides care for his aging mother. He is reestablishing a life in sobriety and she is on a fixed income, so their resources are limited. They're currently unable to mow her lawn. Thank you blessing this family!

A member of Doxa shared a request where they would benefit in having another bed since they assist their neighbor kids while their mom works doubles to make ends meet. Having a bed will allow her to serve the kids in having their own space when they spend the evenings over.

I placed Full/Double, but if you have a twin that works too. Let me know if you have any of the items or want to contribute. Kayley and myself, Nikolai, would be the contact person and I can handle PU and drop off of these items. Thanks y’all!

We are in urgent need of funding to purchase two mattresses (we highly recommend with waterproof covers) for a foster family who is working to get siblings placed in their home. As part of the placement transition, they will be hosting the children for some overnight visits soon and they have worked to purchase beds for their home. As a result, they are asking for help in purchasing the mattresses to put on the beds due to the sudden financial strain. These kids will be looking to make this home a permanent placement, so these items would be for use long into the future. If you can support this family from our own church in some (or all!) of these items, please donate now. If you have bedding items available that you can donate, please mention that. We would like to purchase the mattresses brand new. Thank you for your consideration and support!

Mom is in need of two window air conditioner units for her apartment. Currently, the children are not able to sleep in their rooms because of the temperature (either too hot in the summer or no heat in the winter). Mom also needs a twin size mattress for a bedframe that she has for her daughter.
